  • Answer:

    Seeds Are the people you are downloading from. Peers are the people that are downloading from you. When the download finishes and reaches 100% Utorrent starts Seeding the file to other people that want to download the file. You can let the Utorrent Seed the file even after the download has completed because the reason you managed to download that file is because someone else had downloaded it before and was seeding (sharing) it with you. So as a thanks to those people you can leave the Utorrent seed as long as you want. To stop Seeding just click the STOP button at the top toolbar, or if you do not ever want to seed than delete the Torrent file from the list. You can also limit the upload bandwidth so Utorrent won't slow your Internet Connection. Remember Sharing is Caring! Goodbye and Have a nice day.

After your download is completed, and there are still others trying to download the torrent, you will continue to seed automatically unless you stop it. The main rule with bittorrents is sharing. You should upload the same amount you downloaded, or more if you can. uTorrent displays the Ratio for each torrent. Once it reaches 1.0 you can stop it from seeding. But that's more of a guideline. No one really punishes you for not seeding
